  Content: Proposal Name: Establish bi-monthly AIP voting periods. Proposal Category: Process Team Description: @BoredClubCanada @FUDmaster @BoredApeG Abstract The current weekly voting system has significant disadvantages to both AIP authors and voters, particularly delegations. It is often quoted to be too short for AIP authors to adequately campaign for their AIPs, and for voters it has often been quoted to be too frequent. Bored Club Canada being an active delegate, it is in our experience that the weekly voting is challenging to administer and we could be more efficient if we had more time for our delegates and authors. A bi-monthly (twice per month) voting period is also implemented by our DAO peers such as Arbitrum Foundation. We propose moving to a bi-monthly (twice per month) voting period of 14 days each. Each voting period would commence for the First and Third Thursday of each month. APE Foundation will still reserve the right to modify voting periods at its discretion (e.g. emergencies, risks to the DAO, etc.) with reasonable notice to the community and for non-AIPs (e.g. elections). Benefit to ApeCoin ecosystem Reduced Administrative Overhead: Weekly voting can lead to a significant administrative burden for managing the voting processes, tallying results, and coordinating activities. With fewer voting periods, there is less frequent overhead for both DAO administrators and delegations. Time for In-Depth Deliberation: Having a bi-monthly schedule allows members more time to thoroughly research and discuss proposals. This can result in more informed decision-making, as members have the opportunity to delve into the details of proposals and engage in meaningful debates. Encourages Long-Term Thinking: Bi-monthly voting encourages members to consider the long-term impact of decisions on the ApeCoin ecosystem. Reduced Voter Fatigue: Frequent voting can lead to voter fatigue, where members become disengaged or less likely to participate due to the constant decision-making process. Bi-monthly voting can help maintain higher levels of engagement. Supports More Comprehensive Proposals: In a bi-monthly system, members and proposers may have more time to develop comprehensive proposals, conduct audits, and gather feedback, resulting in more thought-out and refined proposals. More Stable Decision-Making: Weekly voting might lead to frequent changes in the direction of the DAO, which can be disruptive. Bi-monthly voting can provide more stability, allowing decisions to be implemented before new ones are made. Easier for Time Zones: DAOs often consist of members from around the world, and having a bi-monthly schedule may make it easier for participants from different time zones to participate without always having to be available for voting. Steps to implement & Timeline Voting periods commence the First and Third Thursdays of each month, effective January 1 , 2024 . Overall Cost $ 0

  • furiousanger: BoredClubCanada: Weekly voting can lead to a significant administrative burden for managing the voting processes, tallying results I didn’t know we counted ballots? As this is what it sounds like. The whole process is automatic no? Run through snapshot. I really think we have enough staff, which btw is a lot more than last year for example, and now people are complaining about ‘burden’ - this seems to just strengthen my resolve to cut bloat and move to more automation. I’m always free to help count votes.
• AIP-262: Add “Benefit to ApeCoin Ecosystem” to AIP Templates by BoredClubCanada - Accepted AIP Author
  Posted on: May 19, 2023, 12:37 a.m.
  Content: PROPOSAL NAME Add “Benefit to ApeCoin Ecosystem” to AIP Templates PROPOSAL CATEGORY Category: Process ABSTRACT This proposal seeks to update the AIP Templates to include a section entitled “Benefit to ApeCoin Ecosystem”. The purpose of this proposal is to address a recurrent issue in the ApeCoin DAO where AIPs go up to vote without a clear explanation of how they will benefit the ApeCoin ecosystem. It would require AIP authors to explain how their proposals will benefit the ApeCoin ecosystem. If an AIP is requesting funding, it would need to explain in detail the benefit in relation to the amount of funding requested. AUTHOR DESCRIPTION Written by @waabam and @fudmaster on behalf of Bored Club Canada. MOTIVATION There is a recurrent issue in the ApeCoin DAO where AIPs go up to vote without a clear explanation of how they will benefit the ApeCoin ecosystem. This AIP will help address that problem by requiring AIP authors to explain how their proposal will benefit the ApeCoin ecosystem. Including “Benefit to ApeCoin Ecosystem” as a dedicated section would provide more insight into the intrinsic value of an AIP to the ApeCoin DAO ecosystem, while empowering voters to better make an informed decision. RATIONALE Requiring each AIP to explicitly outline how it will benefit the ApeCoin ecosystem will improve the transparency and consistency of the AIP process. This AIP aligns with all of ApeCoin’s values, and specifically will further boldness and transparency. SPECIFICATIONS This AIP requires changes on the ApeCoin Discourse forum and changes in the template used when posting AIPs to Snapshot. Specifically, the AIP Draft Template should be edited to include a section entitled “Benefit to ApeCoin Ecosystem”. This new section of the AIP Draft template should come after “Rationale” and before “Key Terms”. This new section will also be included on Snapshot each time an AIP goes to vote. This section on Snapshot should come prior to the “Overall Cost” section. STEPS TO IMPLEMENT ( 1 ) The ApeCoin DAO’s Discourse Facilitators are instructed to edit the following Discourse posts to include a section entitled “Benefit to ApeCoin Ecosystem”: AIP Draft Template AIP Draft Template Breakdown In the AIP Draft Template Breakdown post, the “Benefit to ApeCoin Ecosystem” section should be section number 6 , and the sections following should be re-numbered accordingly. In the AIP Draft Template Breakdown post, the “Benefit to ApeCoin Ecosystem” section should include the following as a brief description of what is expected in that section: Explain how your proposal will benefit the ApeCoin ecosystem. If your AIP is requesting funding, explain in detail the benefit in relation to the amount of funding that you are requesting. ( 2 ) The Administrators responsible for posting AIPs to Snapshot are instructed to include the “Benefit to ApeCoin Ecosystem” on Snapshot each time an AIP goes to vote. This section should come prior to the “Overall Cost” section. TIMELINE This AIP can be implemented within 1 - 2 days of the AIP being approved by the DAO. OVERALL COST $ 0
